SLUG Queens get out the VOTE!

The SLUG Queens are ever so sorry that you, the huddled masses, can not vote to elect the next SLUG Queen...that is simply the rule (the official rules state that only the Old Queens can elect the new Slug Queen--although, also officially, there are NO RULES!)

But lucky for you we have used our collective royal power to pull together an election you can participate in beyond wolf whistles and cheering--it's for a figurehead character called a "President".

Yes, yes, we know, darlings--it's just not the same. But voting for royalty is reserved for royalty and this should be just as much fun. In fact it's surprisingly similar!

There will be many of the same elements as a SLUG Queen coronation: Contestants are judged on costumes (are they wearing American Flag pins?), talent (how did they handle the media, Pick a VP, dance around the real issues?), and the ability to answer a question (some of which might be "Gotcha" questions but you still have to answer coherently in a proper sentence).

Lastly, there is some unofficial bribery permitted and encouraged which might come in the form of promised tax cuts or 8 trillion dollar bailouts. And this time YOU get to VOTE!

The SLUG Queens want you to enjoy the entire experience from registration to coronation--Whoops, I mean "election" of course!
Come join The Famous Eugene SLUG Queens at the fabulous Cozmic Pizza on Saturday, Oct 11, 2008 from 2-5pm for a good old-fashioned SLUG Queens GET OUT THE VOTE party!

Help keep the Slime in Eugene and out of Washington, DC!
Grab a little pizza and a real good slime...there will be prizes, photo ops, goodies, and more.

Already registered to vote? Bring a friend who hasn't. No, make that two. This is an amazing opportunity to experience both voting and how it feels to be an Old Queen!
